I want a TIP to make a table with the values of the ordinal dimensions.

When I make a draw whit a lot of dimensions, the draw became unreadable. Thas why a put the values in a excel table, but i do that manually.

If anyone can't help me to do the same in better way, I'll appreciate.

Thanks!

Hello,

Create a design table, with the ordinate dimensions.

You can then insert the desing table in a drawing.

Hope this helps.

THAT TIP HELP ME.
 
CORDVI,

I wanted to insert a dimension table on my fabrication drawing, but then I realized that there is no good reason not to insert multiple views on the drawing. This would be insane on a drafting board or in 2D CAD, but it works fine in 3D.

You can have one view for the 6-32UNC taps, another view for the cbore for M6 cap screw, another view to define a complex outline, etc.
